Since then, a number of other high profile men have been accused of inappropriate behaviour, including Kevin Spacey, Ben Affleck, George H.W. Bush, Jeremy Piven, Brett Ratner, Dustin Hoffman, Steven Seagal, Louis C.K., Jeffrey Tambor, Matt Lauer and even Australia's Don Bourke.

It was announced earlier this week that all the presenters at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, which will take place on January 22, will be female.

The Good Place star Kristen Bell will host the awards show which SAG Awards executive producer Kathy Connell says will pay tribute to women.

"Beginning with the Women's March in January, it's been the year of the woman," Ms Connell told The Hollywood Reporter.

"This is a unifying salute to women who have been very brave and speaking up.

"How many times has a woman walked into a room of predominantly men? We thought, maybe for one night, it'll be more than 50/50 [onstage]. We don't want to slight the men who have given great performances this year - knowing our membership, I'm sure our men will embrace the opportunity to honour women."

The 75th annual Golden Globe Awards will be shown live on Monday, January 8 at 12pm on FOX8.
